Objective This project has the objective of developing components for LCA tools that can be used by steel manufacturers and by the steel construction sector. These will help provide environmental information within a buildings full life- cycle, i.e. from the cradle to the gravel. This will help improve steels market share in the various competitive sectors of construction and help sell steel as a sustainable construction material. The project will proceed from the recently developed elaboration undertaken by the IISI to develop accurate data on all inputs (materials, energy, etc.) and all outputs (products, emissions to air, water) associated with the production of steel. Data and information will be collected and developed in 12 life-cycle topic areas stretching from the assessment and development of selected data to the maintenance, repair replacement, adaptability of steel buildings, re-use of steel components; recycling of steel and disposal of it.
